10. As explained by Debbie during her slide show, why did she kill her parents?
Answer: They bought her a Malibu Barbie.Debbie captures the Addamses and ties them to electric chairs while she tells them about her life story via slides. She explains the first people she killed were her parents because they bought her a Malibu Barbie for her birthday when she wanted a ballerina Barbie. She then tells them about the husbands she killed. Interestingly, the report about the Black Widow from the beginning of the film said she kills her husband on their wedding night but Debbie implies she was married to her previous husbands for long periods of time. Also, Joel's serial killer trading cards mention she had three husbands before Fester but Debbie only talks about two, the doctor and the senator.
Debbie attempts to kill the Addamses via electrocution but is instead killed by Pubert who reverses the circuit so Debbie is the one who is electrocuted. Fester laments his loss but is quickly enamored with Dementia, Itt and Margaret's nanny. Also, it seems that Wednesday and Joel have also struck up a relationship though this is not directly mentioned.
